I've got an insulated carry bag designed to keep hot foods hot.

Took a look at the recipe.  Seems part of the uniqueness is serving them hot, out of the oven.  Can you do that at your club? The meat's the thing.  I'd do the meat according to the recipe, keep it hot in the slow cooker and serve it with some petite rolls from a decent bakery.

      *"2 loaves (1 pound each) frozen bread dough, thawed".*

I wasn't able to find frozen bread dough at any of the local stores (Lidl,
Aldi, Trader Joes, Harris Teeter, Lowes Foods) I frequent; not even at
Costco. OK, internet to the rescue. Amazon has it ... in CASE LOTS of 48
loaves. No joy there.

According to Walmart.com WALMART has it, but only at certain stores (except
for they *don't* have it - see my original RANT).

FWIW, I finally found it at Publix - nearest store is 15 miles across town.
If you're capable of almost any level of cooking you should be able to make
your own bread dough.  All you need is flour, water, salt and yeast. About
the only options are whether you want high-protein (i.e. high-gluten) bread
flour or all-purpose flour (high-protein flour has to be kneaded longer),
and whether you  want to add a tablespoon or so of oil.  If you've got a
mixer with a dough hook (or a bread machine) it's a little easier, but you
can do just fine working the dough yourself on a flat surface.

A fairly simple recipe for 2lbs or so of dough would be:
   20 oz flour
   12 oz water
   1 sachet (1/4 oz) of fast-acting dried yeast
   1 to 2 tsp of salt (can be omitted - I find 2 tsp excessive)

1) Put the flour in a bowl, and add the yeast and the salt to opposite sides
    of the bowl - too high a salt concentration can kill yeast.

2) Make a well in the centre, and add olive oil (if wanted) and most of the
    water.  Mix well, adding more water if necessary, to form a dough.

3) Tip the dough onto a smooth lightly-floured work surface, and knead for
    about 10 minutes if using bread flour, or half that for regular flour.
    (You can find all sorts of youtube videos showing you the technique for
    kneading bread dough, which will also show you the consistency of dough
    you should be aiming for).

That's it!
